Maayong Pasko sa Tanan

And it has been a long time

What had happened?

A lot:

Holidays were booked and cancelled and rebooked.

Attempting to sort out health concerns.

Adapting to changes at work.

Learning that expectations can let you down and learning to rise above it is a process.

Other than that:

Spring was great and summer greater and wetter and we had fun on Dennis birthday!

Circling around

I will not say much but I will look back today and remember that for long four weeks we were going around in circles (not to our making). I feel sickeningly fed up!

My Month of May

is mommy's day!

We are three you are one.

There is so much to thank for. But thank you for your creativity. Look we have only one hairstyle!

is Mary May's birthday. She is still cute after 44 years but not as cute as some years ago.

Update

Oh we had pancakes...beautiful pancakes.

A squeeze of lemon; sprinkle of sugar, roll and presto - calorie heaven.

I have only done 4 in previous post. Guess?

I cannot wait for April where the year will definitely start?

Things I need to do before March

The last time I look it is still very winter – okay small mercies – the nights are lighter and mornings brighter, snow had stayed on the hills and daffodils and crocuses are starting to bloom. But it is still very winter.

I am still porky and less perky and I still need a boost be productive.

Well I can at least produce a list.

1. Eat all the Christmas chocolates
2. Take Christmas cards to recycling points. At least they are down and neatly packed.
3. Use the ready mix cake box in the cupboard. Better check the best before date.
4. Finish reading the book (no books) I have started.
5. Finish SATC2, and watch Avatar and the Blind Side. DVD’s are still not opened of the last two.
6. Watch all recorded films and programmes. (Delete them to free up space!)
7. Buy a 2011 calendar.
8. Save all my documents to my external drive. Oh specially photos.
9. Charge my IPod. I have not used it for 6 months. Yes I am a lazy bu***r!
10. Lessen the whinging and whining and moaning.

I only have a less than 10 days before March... I should probably include in the list - not to panic.

Merry Christmas!

We had a great Christmas considering that oven went bust Monday of Christmas week.

I was left with the top oven and I have to hack the old bird into two.

We survived and dinner went according to plan.
